Baby Sweater!

I’m appropriating the cables from the Viking Socks (ravelry link) to use for a size 2 sweater for a toddler. I’m using my own pattern, which currently means I’m really not sure how this is going to work out yet but as long as I don’t run out of yarn I should be ok.

It sure is pretty though…

Size 8 needles

Yarn: Dream in Color: Classy, colorway Wisteria

I cast on 112 stitches, did 1 inch or so of sead stitch and then began the cable patterns, with a seed stitch border at the button band. Next to the button band I have a slightly smaller cable pattern, also from Viking socks. The cable you see here is centered on the back panel.

The sweater looks great. You really know cables. They are so much fun to knit.
I know how to crochet, but don’t have much use for it. I have made a few of those little creatures using leftovers, but a whole sweater? Forget it.
